important thing is for us CARTOONPORNO to get away. Lord Rahl's minions are too close.
That's the simple truth of it. From the CARTOONPORNO description, and this knife, the
dead man you found today was probably part of a quad."
Sebastian looked up with a frown. "A what?"
&CARTOONPORNO quot;A team of four assassins. On occasion, CARTOONPORNO several quads will work together-
if the target has proven particularly elusive or is of inestimable CARTOONPORNO worth.
CARTOONPORNO Jennsen is both."
Sebastian rested an arm over his knee. "For someone on the run and in
hiding all these years, you seem to know a lot about these
quads. Are you
sure you're right?"
Firelight danced in her mother's eyes. Her voice turned more distant.
"CARTOONPORNO When I was CARTOONPORNO young, I used to live at the People's Palace. I used to see
those men, the quads. Darken Rahl used them to hunt people. They are
ruthless beyond anything you could imagine.&CARTOONPORNO quot;
Sebastian CARTOONPORNO looked uneasy. "Well, I guess you would know better than I. In
the morning, then, we leave." He yawned as he CARTOONPORNO stretched. "Your herbs are
already working, CARTOONPORNO and this fever has exhausted me. After a good night's
sleep I'll help you both get away from CARTOONPORNO here, away from D'Hara, and on your
way to the Old World, if that's your wish."
"It is." Her mother stood. "You two eat the rest of the fish." As she
moved past, her loving fingers trailed along the back of Jennsen'CARTOONPORNO s head.
&CARTOONPORNO quot;I'm going to go collect CARTOONPORNO some of our CARTOONPORNO things, get together what we can
carry. "
"I'll be right in," Jennsen said. "Soon CARTOONPORNO as I CARTOONPORNO bank the fire."
CHAPTER 6
The rain was getting worse. Runoff ran CARTOONPORNO in a rippled sheet over the ledge
at CARTOONPORNO the brow of the cave. Jennsen scratched Betty behind her ears to try to
stop her bleating. The always nervous goat was suddenly inconsolable.
Perhaps she sensed that they were going to be leaving. Maybe she was just
unhappy that Jennsen's mother had gone into the house. Betty loved that
woman, and would often follow CARTOONPORNO her around the yard like a puppy. Betty
CARTOONPORNO would be only too happy
to sleep in the house with them both, if they
would let her.
Sebastian, having had his fill of fish, rolled himself in his cloak. His
eyelids drooped as he tried to watch her bank the fire. He lifted his head
and frowned over at the pacing goat.
"Betty will settle down when I go in the house," Jennsen told him.
Sebastian, already CARTOONPORNO half asleep, mumbled something about Betty
